by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to
reopen, Lin v. Holder, 588 F.3d 981, 984 (9th Cir. 2009), and we deny in part and
dismiss in part the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying petitioners’ motion to
reopen as untimely because the motion was filed nearly four years after the BIA’s
final decision, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c), and petitioners did not establish prima
facie eligibility for relief, see Toufighi v. Mukasey, 538 F.3d 988, 996 (9th Cir.
2008) (evidence must demonstrate prima facie eligibility for relief warranting
reopening based on changed country conditions).
Further, even if the BIA erred by failing to consider Garcia-Delgado’s
affidavit in denying the motion to reopen, petitioners’ due process claim fails
because they have not established prejudice. See Lata v. INS, 204 F.3d 1241, 1246
(9th Cir. 2000) (requiring prejudice to prevail on a due process claim). We lack
jurisdiction to consider any additional challenge to the BIA’s decision not to sua
sponte reopen proceedings. See Mejia-Hernandez v. Holder, 633 F.3d 818, 823-24
(9th Cir. 2011).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; DISMISSED in part.
